New study aims to help cystic fibrosis patients discuss lung transplants earlier
NCT ID NCT06030206
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a research website helps people with cystic fibrosis (CF) feel more prepared to discuss lung transplant with their doctors. About 132 adults with CF and low lung function will use the website and attend Zoom sessions over 6 months. The goal is to increase awareness and reduce the number of people who die without considering transplant, especially among marginalized groups.
